About this listen

 How can biblical authority be a reality for those shaped by the modern world?

This work treats the First World as a mission field, offering a unique perspective on the relationship between the gospel and current society by presenting an outsider's view of contemporary Western culture.

very carefully thought out and clearly communicated. gripping. a must read. doesn't water down the Christian gospel. challenges the modern attitude of sacred and secular being separate.

Lesslie never fails to make me pause & reflect when reading or listening to his books. If you liked The Gospel in a Pluralist Society, you’ll like this one. He deeply understands the Western culture and the problems that it has presented Christianity in the private & public sphere and the areas of values & facts.

A deep thinker

I have been grappling with the kinds of questions addressed in this book for a while now and found that Newbigin puts words to ideas I was reaching towards in a way that I simply couldn't. I'll be buying a physical copy now for all the quotes. Wish I had found this sooner.

Just brilliant
